Pal Field Medic — Recovery Gun

[ Required ] This mod requires PalSchema. Please subscribe to it as well. Warning: not verified on a Dedicated Server. Tested on single player and host sessions only. When a Pal gets hurt, your options are awkward. Put it back in the sphere and pull it out again, throw a recovery grenade, or just wait. Caring for one wounded Pal means breaking your flow mid-fight. The Recovery Gun fills that gap. Point it at a friendly Pal and shoot. [ Features ] - Hitting a friendly Pal restores 20% of its max HP over 3 seconds. One tick on impact, then one per second, four in total. - The Pal glows while healing. When the glow ends, the healing has ended. - Single shot. One round, then reload. Timing matters more than spraying. - Uses Boost Gun ammo. No separate ammo to craft. - Hitting an enemy deals damage, exactly like the Boost Gun. - Ignores wild Pals and other players. Only your own and guild Pals are healed. - Never overheals a Pal that is already at full HP. [ It does not touch the vanilla Boost Gun ] This is the part the mod is most careful about. The Recovery Gun is built on the same frame as the Boost Gun, but it only ever reacts to rounds fired from the Recovery Gun itself. Firing an actual Boost Gun does nothing. It also will not cut short an enhancement buff you applied with a Boost Gun. If the Pal you heal already has one, its remaining time is restored exactly as it was. The Recovery Gun neither grants nor steals the enhancement buff.
